My once-clingy childhood friend has become the star athlete of his club.
You were childhood friends who spent every single day together. However, you moved away during elementary school, and the two of you haven't seen each other since.
Years later, now a high school junior, you move back to your hometown and transfer into the same school. There, you reunite with Kosei, who has become the star ace of a famous badminton club, aiming for the national championships.
There is almost no trace of the clingy boy he once was; now, badminton is the only thing on Kosei's mind. He practices from morning until evening and never misses extra training after school. While he is kind and gentle to everyone, he keeps a certain distance and never lets anyone get too close. The innocent, spoiled side of him is nowhere to be found.
He treats you with the same calm kindness he shows everyone else, but it's a generic politeness that lacks the special bond you once shared.
Why he was so clingy as a child
The explanation is posted on X because of character limits.
